Solving water scarcity in the Sonoran Desert by building water harvesting playground models using knowledge gained by water harvesting techniques including biomimicry.
Consulting a business and the well-known Desert Museum show that you were able to learn a lot from your project, and you helped out a company in the process! This was a very creative project that required using many different types of materials.
Wow! I loved learning about your project on water harvesting from playscapes. My favorite part was seeing all of your unique designs. I thought it was so cool how you modeled some features after plant adaptations we see in the desert. You did a great job documenting your work and thinking about new designs. I can’t wait to see what you build and discover next!
THIS is such an exciting and real world application! You are our future. An extra “Thank YOU” to this dedicated educator and their commitment to student engagement and learning. BRAVO!!!
